Clinical relevance of human papillomavirus testing in cytopathology
Cancer of the uterine cervix is the second most common cancer in women worldwide. Currently, cervical screening is based on cytology alone. Because infection with high‐risk human papillomavirus types (hrHPVs) is a necessary cause of cervical cancer, it has been postulated that screening might become more efficient when it is based on combined cytology ...

Invasive Cervical Cancers After an HPV‐Negative Test: Insights From HPV Testing Histories
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing is the primary method for cervical screening, and a negative HPV test is associated with a very low subsequent risk of invasive cancer. Nevertheless, some cervical cancers are diagnosed following an HPV‐negative test.

ABSTRACT Antibodies against HPV proteins can provide pre‐diagnostic information about cancer development. We described the prevalence of antibodies to proteins of oncogenic HPV types prior to diagnosis of HPV‐related cancers. We analysed pre‐diagnostic blood from 1700 participants with incident HPV‐related cancers (anal = 387, cervical = 274 ...

ABSTRACT Many cervical screening programmes rely on cytology for triage of high‐risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) positive women. However, cytological triage has variable and often limited sensitivity, and its availability can be restricted in resource‐poor settings.

Molecular testing of human papillomavirus in cervical specimens
OBJECTIVE: To improve the diagnosis of cervical neoplasia by early detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) in uterine cervix, by adding molecular testing of HPV using hybrid capture 2 (HC2) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests to Papanicolaou (Pap) test. METHODS: One hundred women were enrolled in this study. The mean age (mean ± SD) was 41.97 ± 8.

Vaccinations in pregnancy: An update for a changing time
Abstract Maternal immunization is one of the most effective public health interventions to reduce infectious morbidity and mortality in pregnant women, fetuses, and newborns. Despite robust evidence supporting vaccine safety and effectiveness in pregnancy, global uptake has declined following the COVID‐19 pandemic, contributing to resurgent outbreaks ...
